Lydia L. Patzkowski (ABT 1906 - 16 Jan 1972)

The maternal relationship between Lydia L. Patzkowski and her daughter Susan Elaine Reimer is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant HG.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between HG and other confirmed descendants of Jacob K. Patzkowsky/Elizabeth Penner is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since HG descends from Jacob K. Patzkowsky/Elizabeth Penner through Lydia L. Patzkowski and her daughter Susan Elaine Reimer, the presence of significant shared DNA between HG and other known descendants of Jacob K. Patzkowsky/Elizabeth Penner validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Jacob K. Patzkowsky/Elizabeth Penner through Lydia L. Patzkowski to Susan Elaine Reimer, and ultimately to HG, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
